Lieberman completed as McCormick was nursing a glass of red wine and telling stories to his tablemates. With the action on him he announced, "Less talking more drinking. I call."
Lieberman bet on fourth and McCormick inquired, "Is that two spades?" George Alexander informed him that it was one spade and one club.
"Okay, so he's not on a flush draw so he's probably not bluffing," explained McCormick.
"That no talking thing sure lasted a long time," joked Marco Johnson, as McCormick called.
Lieberman led on fifth and McCormick called. Lieberman bet all-in for 4,500 on sixth and was called.
Lieberman was ahead with tens against the eights of McCormick, who caught the 3♠ on seventh and was drawing dead against Lieberman who peeled the 3♣ as he doubled.
